Admixtures for concrete, mortar and grout - Part 6: Sampling, assessment and verification of the constancy of performance
Also Known As:
DIN EN 934-6 standard focuses on the sampling, assessment, and verification of the constancy of performance for admixtures used in concrete, mortar, and grout. It establishes the guidelines and procedures to ensure that the admixtures consistently meet the desired performance requirements.
The standard outlines the proper sampling techniques to obtain representative samples of the admixtures. These samples are then assessed and evaluated to determine if they meet the specified performance criteria. The assessment involves analyzing the physical and chemical properties of the admixtures, as well as their impact on the properties of the final concrete, mortar, or grout.
Furthermore, DIN EN 934-6 standard emphasizes the need for ongoing verification of the admixture's constancy of performance. This involves regular monitoring and testing to confirm that the admixtures continue to meet the required performance standards over time. The standard provides guidelines for conducting these verification tests and outlines the frequency and scope of the testing.
